Too Late...?

Hi there again!

Well I know in my last post I said that I would write about my visit to Australia, but now mum says that maybe I shouldn't write them anymore because it has been so long. I do still want to write, but then again I know that I'll never be able to finish writing them all. By then, they would just be like " hanging there".

I am really, really sorry for those of you who have been waiting such a long time for my Australian posts. I feel real sorry that I have been able to write able to write them.

But those who really have been waiting to know about my Australian visit can ask me questions about it by commenting on this post! Thanks for understanding!

Another Apology

I know, I know I'm way behind on my Aussie updates and I know that you all have been waiting for them. As I said a have a few written down in my journal but haven't posted yet,. So sorry about that. So when you finally see my Aussie updates please remember that it happened a while ago. =) I don't think I will be able to remember all those dates but I'll try to give you a close one. Whoops about that!

So thanks again for reading my blog and encouraging me to keep writing. I hope you all have been enjoying my short post.

The Shack

Last night, Mum just finished reading The Shack to us. I really really enjoyed the book although mum did not read the chapter called The Great Sadness to us. She says that we can read that chunk when we are a little older. I really enjoyed the bits when Mackenzie spent time with Papa, Jesus, and Sarayu. Now I can't wait to read The Great Sadness part, just so I can really understand. I think that the author - William P. Young - used a very creative, clever, and inspiring way of writing this book. I enjoyed every bit. To think that all those amazing things happened all in one weekend!

If I were Mackenzie and got a chance to encounter God like that, sitting on the dock on the starry night with Jesus, It would be AWESOME! I would ask Him all the questions I have been storing up to ask Him when I go back to heaven. One of the quotes in the book said that "This book will change your view of God forever." If there is anything else I could say about The Shack it would be... WOW!

Remember... God is especially fond of you!

Happy Birthday, Felicity! AG Book Club

As I said Nat and I were attending another web class. In fact its two. One is called Happy Birthday Felicity! American Girl book club and the other is Basic Spanish. Well, anyway today will write about the AG book club ( I might call it Happy Birthday Felicity! sometimes.)

Basically why this new web class is called Happy Birthday Felicity! Book Club is because the book that all the questions are based on is called Happy Birthday Felicity, one of the books from Felicity American Girl series 1774. Felicity is one of the girls in the American Girl series. This series is a collection of stories from 9 year old American girls ranging from the 1700's to the 1900's. Nat and I first saw this series in Borders bookstore and well...gave it a try. Once I read one of those books I really loved them. That's why we took this web-class. Now, getting back to the subject of my web-class! It is a little different from the previous one. Well... here they are:

*We read one chapter every week

*Then we print (actually koo koo prints it! ) out worksheets with questions to answer according to the book.

*We also watch videos with experiments we can do like making your own hot chocolate!

The class has just ended and koo koo is helping us print our certificates. We have had lots of fun, although I haven't finished doing all the experiments yet!

The next web class I'll write about is BASIC SPANISH!

Water Water Everywhere!

Nathalynn and I just finished a science class for one month in May. In our class we had almost 3000 students! Can you imagine that? Well, it was actually virtual education. Our professor's name is Craig Hatcher, so we call him Prof H. We had lots of fun! The name of our class is called Water, Water, Everywhere. Well, of course we studied water. ( what did you think? ) We had to watch videos, then answer quizzes, work on experiments, and fill in worksheets. We also had to write in for weekly discussion and web - log. Web - log is something like a blog, but we only write and tell each other about the experiments that try at home. Sometimes Prof H writes riddles and different sorts of questions to us and we have to reply. He even gave us a tricky riddle about a bank robber. You would think that it does not have anything to do with water right? But it does. I can't explain everything because it is a long one but it has got to do with slippery puddles of water, the bank manager slipping on the puddle, the robber using blocks of ice to reach a safe full of jewels, and evaporation after that happened. Well, if I could write everything there was about it I would, but that would be a horribly long post! I have to go. I have another web class going on. I will write about that soon.

Ballet Trial Exam

On the 17Th of march, I had to attend a ballet trial exam. The purpose of it was partially for our parents and also so that we get the feel of how it is going to be like in the real exam. Even thought we all have already experienced what it would be like it was compulsory for everyone to do it if she wanted to take part in the ballet examinations. So, we went for it. At first my mum did not know that parents could go inside to look at their kids dance, and they could take pictures and videos too. Then, my sister, Nat, told my mum. When we went in she was the parents inside. My other sister, Chrisa, and my brother, Ashton, went inside too. Ashton loved to watch us dance our steps out, and Chrisa loved ( I think) loved to be our camera person. She walked around close to where my mum was sitting and began to take videos and pictures of us dancing. After everything was over my teacher told my mum and us all the points that we needed to work on. We really had fun.

So sorry

I am so sorry that I have not been writing so far. I keep forgetting when I am on the computer. Anyway, I will try to keep up more on my blogging. Thanks for visiting my blog.
